I do not know if any of these places are close to where you live.





If they are older books that they have on their shelf, Concordia College Carl B. Ylvisaker Library sometime honors ILL requests.

Would have to find someone in Jmstn who could read Norwegian - sometimes I can make some sense out of Norwegian text - just enough to be dangerous. Will have to look into it!

Love this pic! And I'm sure that some are probably relatives of Julia, although most of her aunts & uncles (including Julia's mother - Beret Olsdtr Øian) emigrated about this time. Julia emigrated in 1904 so just missed being in the picture! Will have to study it. My own gg grandmother was Beret Pedersdtr Øian born 1842 in Tynset & married Anders Lillevang. Her daughter, Beret Andersdtr emigrated and was 1st cousin to Julia's mother. However some of Beret Pedersdtr's family and Beret Olsdtr's remained around Tynset. These could be their nieces, nephews, etc.. And my husband's relatives are Aasengs from Vingelen. I was surprised my husband & I had ancestors that lived so close to one another! Thx for posting.

What a great document - her mother Beret is just a few pages before. I didn't see a search engine so think you had to go through this Census page by page....maybe using the index for some of it. Thanks for taking all that time.

Well okay so find a Simon Johannesen born 1868 in Tolga or one of its sub parishes. The closest one is a Simen Johnson b. 1864 and I think some things about him are posted on page 1 or 2 of this topic.

The problem to me is that wouldn't a Norwegian know the difference between Johnson and Johannessen? For instance us Yankees do see a difference between the names William or Willard even though they are very similar.

The baptismal does not weigh in on the birthplace of either parent, only to their addresses.

I did notice that the domiciles of Knut Amudsen and Hans Halvorsen two of the witnesses of the baptism of Julie Simensdatter are next to each other on the NHDC 1900 Census records.

Knut http://www.rhd.uit.no/folketellinger/ftliste_e.aspx?ft=1900&knr=0436&kenr=001&bnr=0015

Hans ]http://www.rhd.uit.no/folketellinger/ftliste_e.aspx?ft=1900&knr=0436&kenr=001&bnr=0016

and are in Aaseng a farm in Vingelen a subparish of Tolga.

There are not a lot of Simen Johansens of various spellings listed in the Ancestry.com data base for Hedmark born in 1870 plus or minus 2. Only two pop up other than Simen Hakon Johnsen already discussed by Jackie.

View Record
Simen Johannesen
22 feb 1872 25 apr 1872 Ringsaker, Hedmark, Norway Johannes,
Johanne

View Record
Simen Johansen
5 mai 1872 (5 May 1872) 2 jun 1872 Ringsaker, Hedmark, Norway Johan,
Maria

Number two can be found in the 1900 Census so probably can be ruled out.

It seems unfortunately difficult. to find Simen Johannesen Aaseng for his granddaughter in California.

Add. info.
Ole Pedersen Øilien who em. 1904 waited for many years before he sold Øilien.

The Digitised Real Estate Registers from Tynset tells he sold Øilien Sept. 28. 1921 to Bersvend Olsen Øilien for 6000 Kroner (114 000 Kroner in 2014) link

Here is more.
3- Bond (finance) Sept. 15. 1883 from Ole Pedersen to Hypotekbank on 600 Kroner secured in the farm.
4- Bond dated Dec. 15. 1896 on 200 Kroner to Hypotekbank secured in the property
5- Contract on leasing of the farn August 1. 1904 to Sept. 1. 1907 to Peder J. Normann? for 500 Kroner.
6- Bond August 15. 1908 from Ole Pedersen Øilien to Tynset Bank on 300 Kroner secured in the property.
7- Bond d. April 15. 1921 from Ole P. Øilien to Tynset Bank on 2500 Kroner secured in the property.
9- Title of property where Ole Pedersen Øilien sold the farm to Bersvend Olsen for 6000 Kroner.

Found some interesting when I Googled Simen Johannesen 1868 Tynset, but the link has an error:

It seems to go like this;
"Finner du nok ikke i..." You will find nothing in Tynset Bygdebok volume two but in volume one page 578. Subject: Simen Johannesen 1868, recidence Aaseng/Åseng, Tolga in 1890...

I will see if I can get over the the U of Minnesota Library this week and look at the Tolga and Tynset Bygdebok, Page 578 might be a good place to start.

Today I had time to look at the Tynset Bygdebok. No new revelations there. Here is the part of the section on Øilia pertaining to Julia.

Ole Pedersen f. 13/8 1845, d. 30/5 1921, g. 25/4 1868 i Tolga m. Johanne Knutsd. Hammerplass. f. 11/8 1843 i Tolga, d. 23/11 1903

3. Beret f. 4/8 1871, har med Simen Johannesson Aaseng, Tolga, f. 1868, dattera Julia f. 29/7 1890. Beret reiste til New York 9/9 1892.

Also this on Ole Pedesen,

Ole Pedesen var i gamleste laget til å greie det harde tempoet i Amerika , og kom attende til Tynset og dødde i heimbygda.

Hopefully more to follow

It took me several tries, but I believe I found the missing link. The Google search engine combined results, I think, so the results were mixed with another person.
See - Re: Iver Pedersen (Nyland) (f.1811) at this link.....

Skrevet: 04 Jan 2015 23:50:10 Tittel: Re: Iver Pedersen (Nyland) (f.1811)

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:VBaICekHsbIJ:www.disnorge.no/slektsforum/viewtopic.php%3Fp%3D662647%26sid%3D3150d4c4603720603efb4bd525f0a2b4+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

I've seen pages from the Bygdebok from Vingelen regarding the Aasengs (translated by a relative from Norway) and could find no evidence of Simen there. Not sure it is worthwhile for lyndal40 to look at the Tolga & Tynset Bygdebok, or not? Regardless, thanks to all for your time & efforts - it is SO much appreciated. Simen Johannessen is just such a mystery! It took almost 3 decades for me to solve the mystery of my great grandmother, so I still hope to find proof of Simen. Ironically, Julia married Edward Smith - "Smith" being the most common name in America. Can't find his line either.
